The Industrial South.

The Msnufscturers' Record has been COM
pilng some more OF its useful information
concerning the advance of industry in the
South. Its last six months bulletin is to be
published in this weeks issue, and it is
most encouraging exhibit. During the first
six months of this year the number of new
enterprises established in the fourteen
Southern States exceeds that of any previous
half year Industrial activity in that section
of the country grows greater everv year. an
evidence that the movement Is natural and
healthy, and thst the South has taken it's
plsce smong the States that are not wholly
agricultural. la the six months of
this year, 1855 new enterprises have
been actually established in the
South. Last year, during the like period,
si2 codcerus were begun. The capital in
vested this year is $l6l. 1872 900, against $685.
SIS, 200 last yesr. This is a very remarkable
showing and is indicative of good deal more
than the industrial growth of the South. 1t
is evidence Of the general health of business
throughout the country. for . very large per
centsge of these investments comes from the
North and represents the surplus which is not
demanded by our own industries. 1t repre-
senis also the soundness of credit in the
South. and the closer relations that exist b.
tween the two parts OF the country.

Continuing the Case.

The trial of Ed. James, alias Smokey,
who shot a man named Blair at
Douglas over a year ago, has been con
tinued until the next term of court on &C
count of errors in the Indictment. 1t is
evidently the purpose of the authorities
to allow the case to be postponed from
time TO time until it is eventually aban
doned. Smokey formerly resided in this
city. He is far from being a bad man or
lawless character, and always bore a good
reputation. 1t was he who, while acting
as %janitor of the Albany county court
house, was gagged, bound and thrown
into a cell upon the occasion of the Lara
mic jail delivery, some three months ago.
Harry Blair, the complaining witness
in the case, was at the Inter Ocean yes
terday. He is a cripple, having sustained
the loss of a hand several years ago.
Blair was confined to his room several
months from the effects of the shot fred
by Smokey. but has nearly recovered.

Pretty waIter Girls In Japan.

All tho Japanese cooks affect French names
for their dishes, and it Is very natural that
they should, ns they ave all been taught by
French culinary artists; but the Jap cook Is
not always up in French nomenclature, and
it Is sometimes pulling to know what he
means. For instance, l ordered one day
what was put down on the menu as "Spatch-
cock and mashed potatoes" and when it was
brought mo l found it TO be q small bit of
chicken with a potato. The walters here are
ell japanese girls, and very pretty. They
possess thick, glossy hair and dazzling teeth.
Their costumes are very much a la "Mikado,"
but more open in the neck. Only recently a
very proper American lady took it into her
head that thoy knew no better, and, pro-
viding herself with a paper Of pins, went
about the streets pinning together the dresses
of oil tho girls whom she could capture.
This caused much establishment and amuse-
ment in the town, and the quick witted Japs
rave her an u~npronounceable name, which,
being translated, signifieth "Tho Great Amer
lean Pinner.h
The walters, as a rule, know but little Eng
lish, so the dishes on the menu are numbered,
and one orders by numbers, which is not n
bad way of doing Tbey receive no wages,
but oro entirely dependent upon gratuities,
which renders them very attentive and smil-
ing. When you want q servant you go to the

PRESIDENT Won DER ABE

The style Of playing of the two clubs Is also
as different as the weights of the two clubs.
The Detroits win their games mostly by their
heavy batting aud fine team work, while the
st. Louis club win because "they play ball all
over" They lead the association clubs with
one exception ir every point-batting, field
ing and base running. The Cincinnati club
alone equals them in fielding.
Another marked contrast between the
clubs is the number of players each has on its
salary list. As is well known, the Detroit
club has more men on its pay roll than any
club either in the league or association, while
the St. Louis club has made its splendid
record this year with but eleven regular
players. They have three pitchers and two
catcheis, but no regular right fielder, one of
their two old pitchers playing that position
when not in the pitchers position.
Below are sketches of the st. Louis play
ers, in order as they are on the batting list:
Walter A. Latham, third baseman, was born In
Lynn, Mass. He began professional ball playing
with the Philadelphias In 1882, and has been with
the st. Louis club ever since-hve years. His
nickname is "Arlie," and he Is also frequently
called Monkey" Latham, on account of his In
cessant chattering and coaching. He Is the best
known coacher In the United States, and many
people visit the ball field as much to see Latham's
antics and coaching as TO view the game. He is
the clown of the bal. field, but his bright, pleas
ant sayings never interfere with his wonderful
stops and pickups at third and his daring base
running. He is not a heavy batter, but usually a
safe one.
William Gleason, short stop, Is a st. Louis boy,
and started ball playing with the Dubuque Qowa)
club, in 1879, with Capt. Comiskey. When the
the latter Joined the Browns eight yeais ago
Gleason came with him. He nLs been there ever
since. do!Lg good work both in the field and at the
DAT. The official record shows that his work has
been of much value to his club.

them a. captain. and as captain and manager the
last four. He began with the Dubuque Qowa)
club in 1877. Capt. Comiskey, as q rule, Ia rather
quiet, but knows how to 'tkick' at an umpire's
unjust decisions whenever necessary. The st.
Louis club would seem like q new organization
without Comiskey in 1t.
Albert ]. Bushong C'Doo'O is another Pbil1~
d%elphian- He has been successfully catching for
the last eight years, having begun with the
Worcester MassD league club In 1879. From
there he went to the Cleveland (O.) club, and
three years ago he came to the st. Louis club.
He is one of the most successful catchers now
playing. He is a dentist by profession and prac-
tees In St. Louis when not engaged In playing
ball.
Charles King, the third pitcher of the club, Is a
native of st. Louis, He began ball playing
with the Jacksonville Qlls.) club In 1885, and In
1886 played with the st. Joe CMo) Western
League club. He Joined the Browns this season,
and his excellent work shows him to be one of
the best of the younger crop of pitchers.
John Boyle, the eleventh man, has a phenome-
nal record as q catcher. He is a Cincinnati boy,
and was on the Red Stockings pay roll the latter
part OF 1885, but did no playing with them to
speak OF. The Reds traded him this season for
Hugh Nicol the famous little right fielder and
base stealerl, and the Browns soon found they
had a jewel Bushong, their regular catcher,
had a finger badly broken, and young Boyle
stepped in and caught f~orty-two consecutive
games, besides eight or ten exhibition games.
He plays like an old veteran, and Is a great ia

The symptoms of biliousness are unhap-
PLY too well known. They differ in diff
ferent individuals to some extent. A bill
ious man is seldom a breakfast eater.
Too frequently. alas, he has an excellent
appetite for liquids but none for solids of
a morning. His tongue will hardly bear
inspection at any time; if it is not white
and furred, it is rough. at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of
order and Diarrhea or Constipation may
be a symptom or the two may alternate.
There are often Hemmorrhoids or even
loss of blood. There may be giddiness
and often headache and acidity or fatu.
lence and tenderness in the pit of the
stomach. To correct all this if not effect
a cure try Green's august FIouer, it costs
but a trife and thousands attest its efficacy.
